Mission Statemement
"We believe that our relationships with our
animal companions are among life's truly
invaluable gifts.  As animal health care
providers, our goal is to do our best work to
enhance and facilitate the relationships between
our clients and their pets.  We recognize that
good health involves not only avoiding and
combating disease, but also discovering,
through interactions with these wonderful
creatures with which we share our lives, the
great joy and important lessons that come to us
through the human-animal bond.  Our goal is to
help strengthen that bond as a cornerstone to a
healthful, balanced, and fulfilling life for human
and pet."
How many times have you heard the expression that
attitude is 90% of good health?   One of the really wonderful
things about working in pet health care is that the patient's
attitude is already working with you in the vast majority of
cases.  Our pets look to us with total trust that we will
provide what they need, and when we do that, they respond
positively most of the time.  It's very reinforcing.  After more
than two decades of working with all kinds of pet health
problems, though each case presents a new challenge,
clearly there are some basic principles which emerge as the
most important for achieving good health.  Incorporating
into our own practice philosophy the
positive attitude our
patients contribute to their health care is one of the goals
we try to achieve in every case.
